Epilepsy

Today I am starting our dear Tilly [dalmation] on tablets for epilepsy. She has now had three seizures [that we know of], and after her last one we took her to the vet. She now has had blood tests to rule out other problems and so our next step is the medication. The side effects initialy will be her being 'dopier' [my husband doesn't think that's possible.lol] and much hungrier. Apparently she may seek to eat stuff she normally wouldn't, so we will have to be vigilant with any toxins around the place. it has been frightening to see her 'fit' so hopefully these meds will help.
